Pressão arterial periférica por Dinamap e pressão arterial central por tonometria planar de absorção no ambulatório de Medicina Geral e Familiar

Abstract

In a convenience sample of 92 patients, PBP and CBP were controlled in 59.8% and 57.6%, respectively. Those with controlled PBP had significantly better peripheral systolic and diastolic blood pressure, CBP, pPP and cPP; the same was true of those with controlled CBP, who also had a significantly better AI. The percentage of the cardiac cycle in diastole had a desirable value for 92,2% of the subjects.
